and what do Magic get? a one way ticket to the first overall pick in the draft?

That's what I think. The worst team in the east will be the magic. the worst team in the west will be rockets. then there's everyone else and so forth. bad thing is I think this is the weakest draft in NBA history, unless there's a lot of unknown high schoolers, but who thinks there's another Anthony Davis story? I don't think so, there are only 3-6 good guys in next season's draft, which would make it a serious competition for these bad teams to get in that top 5. I also think this season Rockets will trade off Martin for some cap space to go after some big names in free agency. for the next season. like James Harden, etc. etc. and so with that I say the trade was bad for Magic....in terms of wanting to compete, it was good, if you wanted the first pick in the weakest draft in NBA history.......

As unspectacular as anyone thinks the Magic's part of this deal was (and though I don't follow the NBA, I wouldn't disagree if it were measured as 1.7 metric tons of dog crap), it's still a heck of a lot more than they got when they lost Shaq to LA.

So funny that only 2 of the people in this draft actually won an NBA title...

I think now they have the strongest team, as long as D12 comes back well from injury... If he is healthy, I dont think anyone can take em...
